# Jargon

> Jargon is a deceptively relaxing deckbuilder where classic word games meet modern roguelites. Build words on the board, collect powerful books that rewrite the rules, and experiment with wild combos as the game escalates around you. Play Buzzwords to unlock game-changing perks, then adapt as new modifiers, curses, and twists pile on. Between rounds, visit a little bookshop stocked with classic literature, enchanted runes, special stickers, and occasionally bombs. What kind of bookstore sells bombs, you ask? What are you, a cop? Whether you’re carefully crafting clever plays or watching your build spiral completely out of control, Jargon is about pushing systems until they break. Features: Over 60 books that radically change how words score and behave A wide variety of items that enchant letters and reshape the board Four game modes, each with five escalating difficulty levels A cozy jazz soundtrack that stays calm while everything else falls apart Put your wordsmithing skills to the test in Jargon!
